Natal Mahogany – Mafuru Butter is rich Palmitic Acid, Oleic Acid and Linoleic Acid. Palmitic Acid represents the largest proportion of fatty acid in the outside layer of the epidermis (Stratum Corneum). Since the Palmitic Acid production in our skin declines with age, Natal Mahogany Butter is very useful for mature and dry skin, which needs nourishment and moisture. It penetrates and hydrates the skin quickly providing the important fatty acid needed and firms the cell membranes. It also reduces the trans-epidermal water loss.

Avocado Oil is rich in alpha Tocopherol, which actively promotes metabolism and enhances the re-generation of the cell membranes in the skin.

Avocado Oil is important for the penetration of nutrients into the skin and acts as carrier for the nutrient oils. It thus enhances efficiency and performance of skin-care products.

Avocado Oil is rich in Palmitoleic Acid which is similar to the sebum in the human skin and is therefore very compatible even for sensitive and sick skin.

Popular for dry, cracked skin and skin barrier defects.

Honeybush (Cyclopia intermedia) produces significant anti-wrinkle effects, it reduces the length and depth of skin wrinkles caused by UV irradiation and inhibited thickening of the epidermal layer, in addition to suppressing collagen tissue breakdown reactions, indicating its potential use as a skin wrinkle prevention agent.

There is evidence that the phenolic compounds in honeybush are able to reduce inflammation and prevent the development of chronic inflammatory diseases. Phenolic compounds have a direct effect on down-regulating the body’s inflammatory response. This makes honeybush extract effective in providing  inflammatory relief to skin flare ups and irritation caused by conditions like psoriasis and eczema.
